Agronomics and Economics of potato leafhopper (PLH)-resistant alfalfa intercropped with perennial forage grass for PLH control
(New York State IPM Program, 2007)Potato leafhopper (PLH) is the most damaging alfalfa pest in the Northeast (NE). Forage grasses mixed with alfalfa can cause PLH to emigrate but may reduce forage quality. Some alfalfa cultivars have PLH-resistance, yet ... -
Assessing the Nontarget Effect of Transgenic (European Corn Borer- Resistant) Corn Hybrids on Anthracnose Stalk Rot Development
(New York State Integrated Pest Management Program, 1999)A research project was conducted to determine whether anthracnose stalk rot (ASR) reduction (and the associated protection of grain yield) is a nontarget benefit that can be expected of transgenic (insect resistant) corn ... -
Dairy and Beef Biting and Nuisance Flies IPM Meeting Series
(New York State IPM Program, 2014)A series of on-farm summer field meetings were held for dairy and beef producers to increase awareness of issues and IPM approaches to manage nuisance and biting flies on dairy cattle for animals on pasture. -
Dairy and Beef Biting and Nuisance Fly IPM Meeting Series – 2015
(New York State IPM Program, 2015)A series of on-farm summer field meetings were held for dairy and beef producers to increase awareness of issues and IPM approaches to manage nuisance and biting flies on dairy cattle and other animal. -
Demonstrating New Technologies for Improved Corn Rootworm Management
(New York State IPM Program, 2001)On-farm demonstrations were initiated at the Cornell Musgrave Farm, Aurora and the Cornell Teaching and Research (T&R) Farm, Harford, to present, compare, and evaluate new and emerging corn rootworm (CRW) management ... -
Demonstrating New Technologies for Improved Corn Rootworm Management
(New York State IPM Program, 2000)An on-farm demonstration was initiated at the Cornell Musgrave Farm, Aurora, to present, compare, and evaluate new and emerging corn rootworm (CRW) management strategies. In this first phase of a three year project, ca. a ... -
Demonstrating New Technologies for Improved Corn Rootworm Management
(New York State IPM Program, 2002)On-farm demonstrations were initiated at the Cornell Musgrave Farm, Aurora and the Cornell Teaching and Research (T&R) Farm, Harford, to present, compare, and evaluate new and emerging corn rootworm (CRW) management ... -
Determining the Impact of an IPM Educational Effort to Field Crop Producers
(New York State IPM Program, 2007)New York field crop producers were surveyed regarding use of field crop integrated pest management (IPM) practices through a collaboration between NYS IPM Program, Cornell’s Survey Research Institute (SRI) and NYS Agricultural ... -
Enhancing Integrated Options to Better Manage Soybean White Mold using a Biological Fungicide
(New York State Integrated Pest Management Program, 2013)Field studies were conducted in two commercial and one Cornell research farm soybean fields to evaluate the effect of the biological fungicide Contans® WG (SipCam) on white mold of soybeans caused by Sclerotinia sclerotiorum. ... -
Enhancing Northeastern alfalfa/corn IPM stakeholder skills with Online Resources and Field Training
(New York State IPM Program, 2015)Seven integrated pest management training videos on field corn and alfalfa insect pests and diseases were created for online use by agricultural professionals and producer/growers. In addition, three hands-on field meetings ... -
Evaluating Soil Characteristics as a Potential Means to Minimize Soil Insecticide Usage to Control Corn Rootworm
(New York State Integrated Pest Management Program, 1999)Previous research by Davis (1997), Allee (1998) and others has indicated a relationship between soil drainage, soil suitability for corn cropping and relative impacts of corn rootworm. Current research was an effort to ... -
Evaluating Soil Characteristics as a Potential Means to Minimize Soil Insecticide Usage to Control Corn Rootworm
(New York State Integrated Pest Management Program, 1998)In the first phase of a multiyear project, studies were conducted to determine adult populations of corn rootworm beetle, Diabrotica species, in corn fields grown for silage. -
Evaluation of a potato leafhopper (PLH) resistant alfalfa cultivar effects on PLH injury in alfalfa: grass mixed stands with and without insecticide.
(New York State IPM Program, 2003)The combination of a resistant cultivar and a grass resulted in significantly better PLH control than did the resistant cultivar alone or the grass alone. The resistant cultivar had 36% fewer PLH than the susceptible ... -
Evaluation of Temperature on Searching Ability and Parasitism Rates of Muscidifurax raptorellus and Muscidifurax raptor in Dairy Barns and Calf Hutches
(New York State Integrated Pest Management Program, 1997)A study on the effects of ambient temperature on the searching abilities and parasitism rates of two house fly pupal parasitoids M. raptor and M. raptorellus in dairy barns and calf hutches was conducted near Ithaca, NY ... -
Evaluation of Two Parasitoids in Dairy Calf Greenhouses
(New York State IPM Program, 2007)Parasitoids are a critical component of a successful dairy fly IPM program. In the first year of this three-year study we compared individual species parasitoid releases. During year 2, we compared the best individual ... -
Expanding Livestock Integrated Pest Management in the Northeast: An IPM Training Opportunity for Northeast US Animal Agriculture Industry Personnel
(New York State IPM Program, 2007)Two IPM educational opportunities were offered to train northeast US cooperative extension and other animal agricultural industry outreach personnel in an overview of livestock Integrated Pest Management (IPM). The first ... -
Improved Transect Sampling to Enhance Efficiency of Corn Rootworm Monitoring
(New York State IPM Program, 2003)Crop monitoring for corn rootworm remains the best means to assess fields at risk from this pest if replanted to corn the following year. Use of sequential sampling reduced the minimum sampling time to about 20 minutes or ... -
Improving Field Crop Extension Outreach Through Enhanced Growing Season Communication and Outreach
(New York State IPM Program, 2015)Cornell Cooperative Extension (CCE) educators are Cornell University’s front line in helping New York field crop producer clientele with crop production and pest management issues. Keeping CCE personnel informed on the ... -
